| You Just Never Know What will happen from day to day.... My last post was about all the progress that I was making. Well yesterday I started to feel sick a little...chess pains....etc....breathing started to go out of whack Last night I thought several times that I was going to have to call the ambulance I was really struggling with my breathing. I did put on my oxygen but even with that I was struggling. I had a doctors appointment already scheduled for this morning and the Doctor put me back up to 60mg of steroids and back on 3ltrs of oxygen. He said we are going to try and kick this in the butt right now. I also had to take my sis we both have our appointments at the same time and same doctor She isn't doing good. They called the ambulance from the Doctors office. She was on the bypath (sp) and just got a call that she isn't breathing on her own and are right now putting her on the ventilator  that is what I was on for 8 days straight one time and 3 days the next time. It is a hard thing and the recovery off of that is hard. I don't think that she is going to make it that far though and neither do the Doctors. but the ventilator will keep her alive for a little while so we can all see her one more time  Just a update and yeah we never know from day to day what will happen so that is why we MUST be happy with what we all have right now. Thanks for being here |

| I am so sorry to hear this. It really does make me think that I dont have it bad at all. All the while I am doing all I can it seems to destroy myself for no reason and there are people like you who are doing everything they can to survive. Take care and make each moment count.  |
